After leaving the pet shop reluctantly, Anne followed her new friend Hermione, and the two walked along the street of Diagon Alley. After a while, they arrived at the middle of Diagon Alley, near the intersection with the Overturned Alley, which is the Gringott Wizard Bank. It is the largest and most special towering white marble building in Diagon Alley.
Before the gate of Gringott, Anne blinked, frowned and looked at the strange building suspiciously, because there was a breath that she didn't like very much. It seemed to be very similar to some creature that made her hate. That breath felt so annoying!
Although I felt very annoying, I thought that I still needed to go here to exchange for money, so Annie still had to go in. Because Hermione, who was walking in front, had turned back several times and urged her. Annie thought about it for a while and finally decided to go in. Just bear with it.
Following Hermione, Anne and her two walked through the bronze gate, passed the second silver gate before entering the spacious marble hall. There were about dozens of fairies sitting behind the long high counters, some busy registering something on the large account books, some using balances to weigh coins, some using eyepieces to detect gems, and some adult wizards were lined up in front of the counter, waiting in line to handle business.
It's indeed such a disgusting monster...
When Annie saw the creatures on the counter, she felt a sense of consciousness. When she was outside the building, Annie felt the aura that made her hate! It was a greedy aura, and she knew that it would be such a greedy ugly creature! This little monster called goblin also exists on the Valorand continent, but the ones in front of her seemed a little different from those Annie knew, but the aura was basically similar.
"Tsk! Why can these short monsters sit on such a high counter?"
Walking to an idle counter, Anne muttered dissatisfiedly, these counters are too high! At least reaching a height of more than 1.6 meters, even adult wizards may only look up to those despicable goblins? I really don’t know how the mages here allow such greedy monsters to manage their money?
Anne hated such despicable creatures, especially when they were sitting on a high platform and looking down at themselves. In her opinion, they were just a kind of despicable and dirty monster. How dare they do this? If it were Valoran, if he dared to look down at a mage with such a look, it would have been burned by the mages with bad tempers? Looking at the wizards who were lined up in line, Anne didn't understand why the wizards here could tolerate them?
"Shh! Speak softly, Anne." Hermione quickly signaled Anne to whisper, never be heard by the goblins above.
She has been to Guling Pavilion many times, but she knows that these fairies are not so friendly to wizards. Now, Hermione thinks it is important to quickly exchange Jin Jialong, and there is no need to provoke them again.
"I want to exchange for 150 pounds of Jin Jialong, thank you!" After Hermione reminded Anne, she turned around and stood on tiptoe and handed over a few pound notes.
However, the fairy on the counter did not take the coin immediately, but looked down with a vicious look, staring at Anne for several seconds.
It just heard what Anne said. As long as the person sees the competition, Anne will fight back and stare at it mercilessly. It’s amazing to stand tall? A short monster, if you dare to jump down, I will definitely be taller than you!
After a while, after seeing that she could not do anything to Little Annie, the fairy reluctantly gave up!
However, when Hermione's hand that handed the coins was almost sore, she turned her head and looked at Hermione. Finally, she deliberately delayed for a while before she slowly took the banknote. After a while, she coldly took out a small bag of Jin Jialong from under its counter and threw it to Hermione. Its arrogant look almost furiously annoyed Anne.
He caught Jin Jialong, who was thrown by the fairy in panic, and Hermione put it in her bag and carefully put it away, then he signaled Anne to take out the gold coins she wanted to exchange, but these gold coins were too many and heavy, so Hermione's power could not be handed over.
Fortunately, the smart Miss Granger could float and curse this advanced spell. She took out a short wooden wand Anne had seen from her pocket and chanted at the big bag of gold coins: Yugadimuleviosa! The bag containing gold coins slowly floated up and floated to the counter in front of the fairy just now.
Huh? When Anne saw this young lady named Hermione casting spells like this, she felt very novel!
If she read it correctly, it seems that the casting of the spell just now was finally completed with three important elements of action gestures, spells and the help of the wand? But..., do you really need to be so troublesome?
"I'm disturbing, please give me some more trouble and help us exchange all these gold coins for Jin Jialong, thank you!"
Hermione put away her wand and was very proud of her. She was very satisfied with the spell she had just cast. She was just preparing to enter the second grade this year, but ordinary senior students may not necessarily know the spell she casts!
Hearing that he was going to exchange for a large bag of gold coins, the fairy didn't slack this time. He quickly got up, stretched out his short hands funnyly, grabbed the big bag that was comparable to its height. When he opened the bag, he looked in. His ridiculous big eyes flashed by the golden light, and instantly became bigger and rounder! Then, he didn't know what he thought of, his eyes rolled for a while, and then quickly tied them back on the bag.
After tied up the bag, it leaned out again and looked at the two little girls under the counter carefully. Their thief's deformed eyes were thinking about something! At the same time, it turned around and looked at the crowd around it. After finding that not many people noticed the situation here, it thought for a while.
As if it had made some decision, it began to squint its eyes and quickly used a spell on the gold coin bag, causing the bag to disappear, and I don’t know where it was hidden. After packing the bag, it slowly sat back on the original seat at the counter and continued to write something, as if nothing had happened just now.
......
"May I ask! Have our Jin Jialong been exchanged?" Hermione, who had been waiting for a long time, saw that the fairies ignored them anymore and asked involuntarily.
It has been so long since it has collected the gold coins, and it has written a lot of things, so it should be considered a process? So what about the redeemed Jin Jialong? What about the deposit certificate? Or checks are fine, if the Wizard Bank has the cheque business.
Hearing Hermione's question, the goblin looked at the two little girls with mocking eyes just tilted his head, then continued to withdraw his gaze, picked up its quill and continued to write on its large account book in a pretentious manner.
If Anne used mind reading techniques on it now, she would definitely find that the fairy was thinking disdainfully: Gold coins? Humph! Do you want gold coins? But I have never seen anything, and I have never seen that big bag of gold coins of unknown origin! These are really two innocent little girls, humans are really stupid! Haha... I just like such idiots! They actually sent me so many golden good things, so that this idiot wizard can make more of this idiot wizard!
"Hello! Dear Monster Fairy, may I ask! Where are our gold coins? Where are they now? I think it's been so long, you should exchange them for us!" After waiting for a long time, seeing that the fairy in front of me still didn't react much, Hermione couldn't help but think of some bad rumors. So she quickly strengthened her tone and began to question.
"Gold coins? What other gold coins? The little human girl, haven't those dozen gold gallons been exchanged for you long ago? I saw you put them in." The fairy looked at Hermione impatiently, then stretched out her thin finger and pointed at her, signaling her to check her bag.
"Ten, more than a dozen gold gallons?" Hermione subconsciously touched her bag as the fairy prompted. It was the one hundred and fifty pound gold gallons she had just exchanged.
Hermione was stunned for a while for some reason, and only after realizing the true intention of the goblin, she immediately reacted! Then Hermione looked up at the goblin above with an incredible look.
Oh, it's Melin! It, this fairy! It actually dared to cheat their gold coins in broad daylight? No wonder it dragged so long, it never thought of honestly exchanging them those gold coins! Those thousands of gold coins have been hidden and swallowed by it? This shameless thief! A despicable thief!
"You! How dare you do this? You actually robbed our gold coins! You robber, a despicable goblin, a thief! a thief!" Hermione felt that she was in a bad mood.
She was actually in the wizard's bank and was wiped out such a large bag of gold coins by a fairy! That was a gold coins worth at least several thousand golds... It couldn't be lost like this, so she began to scream.
Her voice immediately attracted the wizards around and other fairies on the counter! Although they didn't know what was going on, they still looked at this side, looking at the two little girls standing under the counter, and the fairy employees with a gloomy face on the counter.
Anne, who was looking at the Guling Pavilion curiously and looking around at the environment layout of the hall, turned her head in confusion after hearing Hermione's scream. Anne didn't know what had happened just now, and she didn't pay attention to what was happening here at all.
Finally, Tibers reminded her in private with gloating: The stupid, lifeless fairy just now had embezzled her belongings, well...this is probably the case.
Annie finally knew what was going on, but she was not too angry. She was fearless and did not rush to take action immediately.
She actually didn't care much about these things about property, gold and coins. She just wondered: Do they think they are so easy to bully? Or is it that she is born with a cowardly face that loves to be bullied? Ha! This is really interesting, so interesting!
Then, when she looked at the short and ugly fairy who was standing on the counter, Annie felt even more upset. When did this kind of despicable cat and dog dare to bully her? Sure enough, it was not unreasonable that she had always hated this kind of creature since she was the first.
"Please pay attention to the wording! Little girl, some words cannot be said randomly. Otherwise, the consequences will be serious!" The fairy stood up in displeasure, walked to the counter, lowered her head, and whispered to Hermione in a low voice, hoping that she would be better off being obedient, otherwise, hum!
"You are! You took our gold coins, but didn't exchange them for us for Jin Jialong! You are a thief! Thieves! Robbers!!" Hermione saw that this fairy was still cheating, and she was so angry that she started to shout.
She just came to the Gringott Fairy Bank to do business, but what she never expected was that she was snatched by the bank in turn? No one would believe this if she said it? However, this incident happened under the nose of her Hermione Granger.
"Guard, guard! Come here! Arrest them and send them to the Ministry of Magic. Crime: Make trouble at the Gringot Bank and let them deal with it seriously!" The fairy didn't want to bother with it anymore, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble, so when it saw that the warning was useless, it immediately snapped its fingers and called the bank's guards.
After hearing the sound, two guards in scarlet and gold uniforms who had been standing guard in the hall heard the sound, they came over immediately. One of the tall human wizard guards stood in front of Anne and Hermione, blocking all their sights and creating a sense of visual oppression. The other fairy guards stood behind Anne and Hermione, forming the most favorable situation of encirclement in front and back.
Most of the human guards like this are adult wizards hired by the fairies, and they all have strong strength that is not inferior to ordinary Aurors. They have strong magic power and flexible reactions. They can not only complete basic defense work, but also assist the fairies in handling many disputes between wizards and banks! There are many such guards here at the Guling Pavilion Fairy Bank.
"Two! Please cooperate with our work." The human guard standing in front just stared at Hermione expressionlessly. As for the smaller Anne, he ignored it directly. He didn't think that this little girl could make a big wave. Instead, this little girl who was in her teens and looked like a student needed to pay more attention. Maybe she would use a lot of spells.
"You, you dare to do this!" Hermione was so angry that she could hardly speak.
She was not well-educated and was just twelve years old, and now she was taught a lesson by the cruelty of reality! She was so dazed by anger that she was about to take out the wand in her pocket and teach the hateful fairy a lesson.
Seeing Hermione's action of taking out things, the two guards looked at each other. The human guard in front quickly took a step forward and steadily grabbed Hermione's hand. The other goblin guard behind him pressed the slightly shorter Anne's shoulder as soon as possible. They are now planning to force the two little girls out, but they are just two little girls. They are not planning to use their wands directly.
"Little girl, I'll warn you one last time! Come with us to the Ministry of Magic, otherwise, don't blame us for using spells." After the human guard grabbed Hermione's hand, he stared at the little girl's panic-like eyes coldly, and his other hand quickly took out a magic wand from her pocket, which was the magic wand Hermione had just planned to take out.
And the other fairy guards didn't care about that. The fairy was very unfriendly to humans! So, when he tried to push Anne on the floor and tied her up and took her away. Maybe now it can add another charge to these two little human girls. That is: trying to use a magic wand at the Gringot Fairy Bank, the motive is sinister!
“Wow!!”
The fairy guard who reached out to press Annie's shoulder was about to push hard, but suddenly the fire that rose all over Annie's body ignited the whole palm. The flames that left Annie's body immediately spread like a fierce fire, spreading to its shoulders.
At that moment, it screamed loudly, took several steps back, and then fell to the ground and rolled. It seemed that it was trying to use this method to suppress the terrifying flame on its own.
"You... these... dirty monsters! They actually... dare... dark... my money?!" Annie raised her head, stretched her face, and said word by word. More importantly, the goblin behind her dared to put its dirty hands on her shoulders?
As soon as she finished speaking, burning red flames began to emerge from Annie's body. Her two pairs of eyes had become hot and shiny, and her fiery red eyes were swept towards the fairies standing on the counter.
Annie has actually been disliked by those hateful fairies! Now, she has been caught by her chance and got angry again? Haha! Come on, let you stand tall and let you rob me of money!
"You are seeking death!!!"
